Download or read book Blood Knots written by Luke Jennings and published by Atlantic Books. This book was released on 2015-01-01 with total page 141 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As a child in the 1960s, Luke Jennings was fascinated by the rivers and lakes around his Sussex home. Beneath their surfaces, it seemed to him, waited alien and mysterious worlds. With library books as his guide, he applied himself to the task of learning to fish. His progress was slow, and for years he caught nothing. But then a series of teachers presented themselves, including an inspirational young intelligence officer, from whom he learnt stealth, deception, and the art of the dry fly. So began an enlightening but often dark-shadowed journey of discovery. It would lead to bright streams and wild country, but would end with his mentor's capture, torture, and execution by the IRA. Blood Knots is about angling, about great fish caught and lost, but it is also about friendship, honor, and coming of age. As an adult Jennings has sought out lost and secretive waterways, probing waters "as deep as England" at dead of night in search of giant pike. The quest, as always, is for more than the living quarry. For only by searching far beneath the surface, Jennings suggests in this most moving and thought-provoking of memoirs, can you connect with your own deep history.

Book excerpt: B l o o d O f M y F a t h e r s Blood of My Fathers, a dramatic work of art, is a story told in poetic form about the migration of blacks from the African coast to the Americas. It is a short discourse that provides the innocence of an African pride made captive from the motherland. The blood is intertwined into the fabric of time. It is an era full of history, oppression, and sadness. It is a sojourner connection with echoes of the past. The beat of freedom became the beat of Africa' rhythmic song. From a lacerated soul arose a wellspring of history. The blood endured and became Children of the Dream. The blood was borne free to the dream. The blood provided a legacy for all under a dark struggle. We have become a new generation of wisdom and accountability. The culture of me is of the O era. We have arisen beyond our past because the freedom of me is free.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Blood of the Fathers: A Play in Four Acts You once wrote me this: "Well can you and I repeat together the words of Watson 'to a Laodicean': "'Timorous, hesitant voice, how utterly vile I hold you! Voice without wrath, without ruth - empty of hate as of love! Different notes from these, O watchman, blow to the midnight! Loud in a deep-lulled land, trumpeter, sound an alarm!'" The watchman blew loud; the watchman blew long - without an answering call. Echoes there were, to be sure - there are literary parrots in the Forest of Pen Land - but the deaf would not hear the bugle of warning, nor would the blind see the grim-visaged trumpeter on the social ramparts. But they are beginning to hear and see, and some of the inmates of the asylum for the deaf and blind that lies in the Land of Fatuous Optimism are now even wondering if they could not blow the trumpet louder and better than the watchman himself. And so, all's well - because the dawn is breaking and it one day will be well. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: "Haunting ... teems with raw emotion, and McCullough deftly captures the experience of learning to behave in a male-driven society and then breaking outside of it."—The New Yorker "I will be haunted and empowered by Artemisia Gentileschi's story for the rest of my life."—Amanda Lovelace, bestselling author of the princess saves herself in this one A William C. Morris Debut Award Finalist 2018 National Book Award Longlist Her mother died when she was twelve, and suddenly Artemisia Gentileschi had a stark choice: a life as a nun in a convent or a life grinding pigment for her father's paint. She chose paint. By the time she was seventeen, Artemisia did more than grind pigment. She was one of Rome's most talented painters, even if no one knew her name. But Rome in 1610 was a city where men took what they wanted from women, and in the aftermath of rape Artemisia faced another terrible choice: a life of silence or a life of truth, no matter the cost. He will not consume my every thought. I am a painter. I will paint. Joy McCullough's bold novel in verse is a portrait of an artist as a young woman, filled with the soaring highs of creative inspiration and the devastating setbacks of a system built to break her. McCullough weaves Artemisia's heartbreaking story with the stories of the ancient heroines, Susanna and Judith, who become not only the subjects of two of Artemisia's most famous paintings but sources of strength as she battles to paint a woman's timeless truth in the face of unspeakable and all-too-familiar violence. I will show you what a woman can do. ★"A captivating and impressive."—Booklist, starred review ★"Belongs on every YA shelf."—SLJ, starred review ★"Haunting."—Publishers Weekly, starred review ★"Luminous."—Shelf Awareness, starred review

Book excerpt: "In Do Fathers Matter? the award-winning journalist and father of five Paul Raeburn overturns the many myths and stereotypes of fatherhood as he examines the latest scientific findings on the parent we've often overlooked. Drawing on research from neuroscientists, animal behaviorists, geneticists, and developmental psychologists, among others, Raeburn takes us through the various stages of fatherhood, revealing the profound physiological connections between children and fathers, from conception through adolescence and into adulthood--and the importance of the relationship between mothers and fathers. In the process, he challenges the legacy of Freud and mainstream views of parental attachment, and also explains how we can become better parents ourselves."--www.Amazon.com.

Book excerpt: ‘Michael is living proof that love always has the power to bring you home.’ Charlie Mackesy ‘A cracking read. Really gets to the bottom of the madness of a man fighting his demons.’ Ray Winstone ‘His life may have had its ups and downs, but it is wonderful example of God’s transforming power.’ Nicky Gumbel, Vicar of HTB & pioneer of ALPHA ‘Take it from me, Michael got up to some mischief. And to find some peace at the end of it all! You really need to hear this story.’ Former London Crime Boss Growing up, Michael wanted nothing more than to follow in his dad’s footsteps and join the family business. Aged 18, he did just that and entered into the glamourous, dangerous world of organised crime. Michael’s father, a career criminal and contemporary of the infamous Krays, was a wayward role model. Soon Michael’s criminal activities were funding a reckless lifestyle of drugs, sex, and violence. But the high couldn’t last. In 1993 both men were arrested for their involvement in a £13-million smuggling operation. Michael was sentenced to twelve years, serving time in the same prison as his dad. Inside HMP Exeter, Michael found something he had never expected: answers. A chance encounter in the prison chapel led to an experience that would shake the foundations of his life. This is a true story of trauma and transformation, one man’s search for redemption, and the struggle to become the father he never had.
